Lipstick: Viva Glam V (lustre)
Overall Rating: 4
Price: 4
Packaging Quality: 5
Would you buy this product again? Yes

I love this lipstick but I can't give it a 5, for the following reason:

Viva Glam V is a lustre; it's sheer and, on some people, would be almost next to colorless. If you're looking for strong color in your lipstick, you would be disappointed (and I've read roundly that the Viva Glam V Lipglass has more color than the lipstick).

On the other hand, I like sheers and watery colors. VGV is a beautiful, neutral rose with a gleam of silvery-gold shimmer. It's moisturizing, stays put (for a sheer), goes with everything, yadda yadda...it's become my signature lipstick (at least for now) and I plan on repurchasing it.

Being one of the Viva Glam series, the profits go toward AIDS research so that's even better.

In conclusion, if you want color, you might skip this one (and possibly check out the VGV Lipglass). If you want a beautiful watery-rose sheer with the glimmer, then by all means try this one.
